That could be smaller half of an implementation detail of one of the
two possibilities Jeff mentioned i.e. "mechanism for the puller to
review changes before blindly following". It gives the transfer
part. You still need a new mechanism to make that file that is
tracked in the repository to be used as part of your configuration
variable set after letting the puller to review and approve.
A puller who blindly trust the project could use the "include"
mechanism from your .git/config to include a file with a well-known
name that is tracked by the project _without_ review or approval. I
doubt we would recommend that in an open source setting, though.
